Jonni Cheatwood Biography

B. 1986, Thousand Oaks, CA, USA. Lives and works in Los Angeles, CA, USA.

Playing a strategic game upon the surface of his stitched canvases, Cheatwood plays a set of decisions in a step-by-step rejoinder to each possible move. TheĀ  process begins with a sewing machine, then to the floor, the walls and back to the floor, as he simultaneously moves from canvas to canvas, leaving behind the detritus of his own accidental marks and spilled materials, leaving his history as if he is formulating his own autobiography with fabric with bold colors, clean lines and raw power that all merge into a rough and ready approach, that somehow remains elegant and visually seductive.
